We understand the preliminary
survey of the Idaho Central extern
sion from NamPa TO Henderson's
began yesterday.
Bloody Sucker Greek comes
up again this week with its usual
weekly sensation. T. c. Hall has
been living over in that region for
some years past, and about two
years ago married nice girl, and
has, 80 far as we can learn, been
leading a life becoming peace
able and law abiding citizen. But
the denizens of that community
were surprised by the appearance
of a sheriff from Texas, the other
day, who arrested Hall for MUIR
der committed in that state about
six years ago. Hall resisted ar
rest and snapped revolver on the
sheriff, who grabbed the weapon
and the hammer coming down on
his thumb prevented an explosion,
but badly cut his hand. Hall was
then overpowered and handcuffed
and shackled and taken to Kuna,
at which point the train was board
ed for Texas.
On his way to Caldwell from
the east last week, Mr.. Hand, our
immigrant agent, met Mr.. Har-
vey, from Iowa, who, in company
with his family, was bound for
Oregon, and held tickets to Port
land. Mr.. Hand asked him to
stop over and look around Cald-
we'll before going farther west, and
being a man OF much good sense,
he consented to do so. The very
next day after his arrival here, Mr.
Harvey bought the ranch of Mr.. P.
Latham, about seven miles up the
valley from Caldwell, and in two
days after his arrival in Idaho, was
settled on his own ranch and max
ing hay. Seeing is believing"
If immigrants can only be induced
to stop off and see the advantages
offered to the industrious granger
here, very few would go father.
But they become 80 wearied of
looking at barren sage brush land
in Wyoming and Idaho, that they
become prejudiced, and will not
leave the train so long as the hated
brush can be seen. In five years
from now they will see something
different.
